Oscar’s Emerging Stars: @angiesrightleg and @jlosnipple

The Oscars did what it does best, gave out some awards, had some questionable entertainers and even was used as promotional stunt when The Dictator was evicted. All good healthy news. Best actress speech from Meryl Streep was funny too. But what happened this year that was different from Academy Awards of the past was the organic creation of two Twitter Accounts from body parts. The first was Angelina Jolie’s Leg, currently with almost 15,000 followers at time of writing. Her leg, in that very revealing dress, has popped up everywhere, including a funny gallery piece on Buzzfeed, Leg Bomb, in which the photoeditor has included her leg in every shot. Lots of leg jokes doing the rounds too.

The other body part to self generate a Twitter Account was JLosNipple which made an unplanned appearance at the ceremony, ironically enough during the presentation of best costume. There is a lot of banter between the two accounts, Angelina Jolie’s Leg is doing better but it doesn’t stop JLosNipple from taking pop shots at her rival, including jibes that being on Brad’s arm makes all the different, that’s the real Angelina Jolie and not just Angelina Jolie’s Leg. At least not on the red carpet. And @JLosNipple also claims to be the perkier account too. More tit jokes than you can throw a Dolly Parton bra at going on in that Twitter feed.

So, what next? Shall we have Brad’s nose, George’s hands or if there is a God, Michael’s member?
